The 90-second gratitude check-in I’ve been doing each morning via /r/gratitude

I’ve always wanted to keep a gratitude journal, but I’d overcomplicate it and never stick with it. What finally worked was making it so short that I couldn’t skip it.

Here’s my little 90-second routine:

1. Write down 1 line of gratitude
2. Pick my top-1 priority for the day
3. Say one line to myself: “I can move forward without rushing.”
4. Take one slow breath

It feels small, but starting with gratitude shifts the whole tone of my morning.

If interested, just comment “template” and I'll DM the version I use.
